The former civilians fighting the war in Syria
Portraits of Syrian Rebels
Syrian rebel fighter Tawfiq Hassan, 23, a former butcher, poses for a picture after returning from fighting against Syrian army forces in Aleppo, Syria, on Aug. 26, 2012. In their previous lives, they were butchers, barbers, construction workers and university students. Now they are rebels fighting a civil war they hope will end the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad. (Muhammed Muheisen/AP Photo)
